A few words about Lakeview Pecans

Lakeview Pecans is a family owned and operated business. The first pecan trees were planted in 1981 with additional plantings annually. 20 new and improved varieties have been planted and are at, or nearing production. Lakeview orchards are used for demonstration purposes by N C State University and N C Pecan Growers Association.

The nursery operation is relatively new and “growing”. With the single focus of providing superior container-grown pecan trees, the nursery will remain at a level where each tree can receive individual attention. Lakeview expects to produce up to 2,500 pecan trees annually. The source of grafting material is primarily from Lakeview orchards, insuring variety integrity. Focus is producing healthy trees which will grow when transplanted.

Lakeview has been successful in obtaining the most recently released pecan varieties from the USDA Breeding Station in Brownwood Texas. The Mandan variety was released in February, 2009 and as a pecan nursery, Lakeview was provided with a very limited amount of graft wood. We will be focusing on getting the Mandan variety to the public, but that is not likely to happen till 2011.

Lakeview also has the USDA releases, Lakota and Nacono.The Nacono will be available in 2009, but because of the scarcity of graft wood, the Lakota cannot be available until 2010.
